Services
Laser Therapy
Our Companion Animal Therapy Laser system provides non-invasive pain relief and accelerated healing for pets. This FDA-cleared treatment uses red and near-infrared light to reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and alleviate discomfort from conditions like arthritis and surgical wounds. Sessions typically last 10-15 minutes with no sedation required, allowing pets to remain comfortable during treatment while owners can stay present for reassurance.
Dental Care
We offer comprehensive dental services including digital x-rays, professional cleanings, and surgical extractions using Midmark equipment. Our preventive care focuses on maintaining oral health through regular checkups and specialized products like CET Enzymatic Chews. The team addresses periodontal disease and provides education on home care routines to prevent dental issues that could affect pets' overall health.
Microchipping
We implant Home Again microchips that provide permanent identification for pets. This service includes registration in a national database with 24/7 lost pet specialists, emergency medical hotline access, and travel assistance for pets found over 500 miles from home. The universal scanners ensure compatibility with all major microchip systems for maximum recovery chances.
Boarding
Our secure boarding facility accommodates pets when owners travel, maintaining their regular care routines. We provide comfortable housing with climate-controlled environments and personalized attention from experienced staff. Boarding clients receive regular exercise and monitoring, with access to veterinary care if needed during their stay.
Vaccination
We administer core and elective vaccines to protect pets against common diseases. The veterinary team creates customized vaccination schedules based on age, health status, and lifestyle factors. We explain each vaccine's purpose and potential side effects while maintaining proper storage and administration protocols to ensure maximum efficacy.
